Director of Business Development Ryan Charles said the blog post, filled with zingers, took a few days to write. He came up with the idea while brainstorming ways to help the snowballing recall effort in San Diego.

"Since we're not in San Diego proper, we can't do anything as far as signing the actual recall petition, so we decided on this to raise awareness and potentially help bear the cost for taxpayers," Charles said.

Indeed, taxpayers may already be on the hook for the lawsuits and recall efforts inspired by the mayor's alleged sexual misconduct. Why should they have to pay for his removal on top of that, Charles wants to know.

The average in-state move costs $2,300, said CEO Mike Glanz, depending on the size and distance of the move. The average interstate move runs about $4,200. How much would it cost to relocate Filner? It would depend on how much he is moving and how far, Charles said.

"So, in order to help San Diego stay classy, HireAHelper.com is offering San Diego City Hall free loading and unloading help to move Mayor Filner out of office," Charles wrote in the post. In this special case, he said, HireAHelper would cover the cost of both the truck and the labor.
